I think I have said this before
Blind loyalty is only a good thing for a short time
I happen to believe that Souness was a shi.t manager for us and said so at the time. A lot of my mates argued like you do and called me all the names under the sun because I dared to criticise him publicly. I didnt care. I knew I was right.
And guess what? They agreed with me when he fuc.ked off.
Houllier was the same. Backed himself into a corner because of his man management. I was there at Cardiff singing "Hou let the dogs out" with everyone else. But he had to go. I criticised him and had similar arguments with mates but guess what? They agreed with me when he fuc.ked off too.
I am not sure if I want Rafa to go. But I am sure he needs to change if he is going to stay.
Can he?
Will he?
I dont know, but I am right to criticise him and will continue until and unless he wins the title.[/quote]
If rafa does get things they way he wants with the transfers and other issues still makes one think how long then will it take to win the title?
Will it be another 5 year plan......
